show statement:

As the world slows to a halt, the past trickles thoughts through the long days like a meandering stream. Remembering time spent searching through the woods only to find the carcasses of what once stood.

Thoughts of existence,

ladened with the earth,

forgot in time,

amongst the lifeless ground.

Over the course of my life and through my explorations of natural environments, I have seen the need to conserve resources in the US. Through this work, I illustrate the recollections of places that humans have impacted. I think of my representations as symbolic gestures to lives that once lived.

before the fall

before the winter

before the summer

everything was beautiful…
